Pet/Assistance Animal Policy Information
Please be advised that each property owner is allowed to create and amend their own pet policy. The majority of our owners do allow pets as the greater Seattle area is a very pet friendly place, but a few of our rental properties do not allow pets. Please see each property listing to see if pets are allowed in the rental unit you are interested in.
Requirements
- All pets must be licensed, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and have proper identification that is required by city ordinances. Please be prepared to show pictures and references. We do require to have documentation proving these items.
- Most of our rental properties have restrictions on the size of the pet and the number of pets. Each listing will have the pet policy listed—please read each listing for the restrictions.
- We do require pet rent and or an increased security deposit for each pet. The amount of deposit will vary depending on each property.
- Breeds are negotiable and handled on a case by case basis. A pet with a disposition for aggressive behavior is prohibited.
